Not at all. The website says:
==================================================================
We are thinking of releasing the Linux version Rekall under a duel
licensing scheme. There would be a free for non-commercial use GPL
version and the normal commercial version.
The GPL would not include any kind of support whatsoever, therefore
you would need to take out a support subscription.
The GPL version would be free for non-commercial use.
The commerical version would include a basic level support
subscription valid for 12 months and you would be allowed to use
Rekall commerically.
=================================================================
There's nothing innacurate or contradictory in that statement. After
all, the GPL *is* "free for non-commercial use"; it just happens to
be free for commerical use as well -- and the website doesn't say
that it isn't, it just omits to mention that it is.
